Bodoni Shirts
by Nubby, 02.02.09 at 7:11 am :: permalink :: rss
Bodoni shirts are now available in two colorways! Bodoni is a serif typeface that was first designed by Giambattista Bodoni in 1798. It is known for having an extreme contrast between thick and thin strokes which give it a major graphic edge. Limited edition Bodoni posters are also available.
A more subtle option than the black on white version below, the thin lines have a graphic pop without being overbearing. A great everyday shirt for typophiles.
Women’s Sizing
Small: 15.5 inches across chest (flat) x 22.5 inches in length
Medium: 16.5 inches across chest (flat) x 23.5 inches in length
Large: 17.5 inches across chest (flat) x 24 inches in length
Men’s Sizing
Small: 17.5 inches across chest (flat) x 26.5 inches in length
Medium: 19 inches across chest (flat) x 27.5 inches in length
Large: 21 inches across chest (flat) x 28.5 inches in length
A much bolder option for those that aren’t afraid to announce to the world that Bodoni is their homeboy! This super stark & graphic version is loud and proud.

I Love the way the negative space between the 2&3 and the tops od the 5&6 Look like a bird or a twisted Fleur-de-Lis. I hope I am not the only one who sees it?!

I’m usually not one for bold patterns on tops, but that white version is really seducing me…

These are so cute, as are you! But why no smiles?

Love the shirt! Now I’m waiting ‘til payday so I can get one!
Alice: Seduction is deadly! Will you be able to hold out?
Freya: There were some silly shots with smiling, but I wanted to focus on the shirts.

WOOHOO! I’ve been excited for ages for this shirt to be in your shop, I loved the design as soon as I saw it weeks ago!
Just ordering black now! I really like the other one as well but white doesn’t suit me so well.
I like how the black shirt has outlines and at first at just a glance it may look like just a mysterious pattern as well as beautiful bodoni! Can’t wait to wear it x

Lor: Haha, the cute boy is Todd; he works in the Nemo photo studio. He’s super awesome.

I love this print, any chance you’ll make a Bodoni Tote? cause I’m not so much a tshirt girl these days, but a tote would be perfection :)

Oh, I really like this…I concur with the tote plea though! I need totes all the time for shopping and hauling extra things to school.

Who did you use to print you tees? I have really liked your links to who you used for your stickers, etc. and I am looking into printing white on black tee shirts and I like the cut of these shirts. Can you share a link?
Neva: My boyfriend is a screen printer! I use Bella girl’s shirts (I’m trying to stay away from American Apparel) and water-based inks.

It really seems like All the cute boys I meet are always just visiting and they are always from Oregon or washingon. What is in your water that makes the boys so cute?! Man I have to get out of California.
Only another note woot for your bf being a screenprinter! I am taking a class on it and have fallen head over heels in love with it!
Support your local screenprinters yay
As soon as I have the cash I’m getting one of your shirts :)

Lor: Half of the people I know here in Oregon aren’t originallly from here…so maybe there’s something drawing them all here….and screen printing is amazing! That’s great that you’re learning about it.

Oh, I do wish this was available in a onesie! I’m thinking of getting the poster for my daughter’s nursery. It would be the chic way to introduce her to numbers. This leaves me to debate whether I want the black one or the white one for myself. Sweet, sweet indecision…
